Weekly AFL Check In: Tyler Austin

We did the Weekly Check In series throughout the season checking in on various Yankees minor league players and I thought with a couple weeks in the books down in the Arizona Fall League we could do the same with the Yankees down there playing for the Surprise Saguaros. Who better to start off with in this series than the player that needs the Arizona Fall League the most, Mr. Tyler Austin.

Austin was designated for assignment and sent off the 40 man roster before the 2015 season came to a close but ultimately returned to the club when all was said and done on a new minor league deal. Austin is running out of time in a Yankees and the AFL may be his last chance to prove to the team that he belongs.
